Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma

Chapter 35

Cassandra was completely speechless.

Is Rebecca taking advantage of the time Orlando isn’t around to provoke me?‘ she sneered in her thoughts.

Isn’t she acting ail gentle and refined? Why is she so different when Orlando isn’t home? Did she truly believe that I’ll indulge her? Cassandra exclaimed inwardly.

Instantly, Cassandra understood the situation.

Cassandra squinted, cast an indifferent glance at Orlando, and said nothing. Then, she lowered her head and continued to focus on her computer, busy with her work.

Rebecca immediately walked toward Orlando and muttered in a low voice, “I’m fine. What Cassandra said is right, and there’s nothing wrong with her driving me away. I should probably move out, Landy, since you two are still legally married, and I’m just an outsider.”
